VICTORY: Israel Bans ‘Shackle and Hoist’ Slaughter Method for All Cattle Used for Beef

Following a joint eyewitness investigation and campaign by PETA, Animals Now, and Let the Animals Live, Israel announced that—effective immediately—no new slaughterhouses will be approved for export to the country unless they conduct slaughter with rotating restraint pens. For facilities already exporting beef to the country, it set a deadline for the installation of rotating pens of June 1, 2018, after which time “shackle and hoist” meat will be completely banned.

— Ingrid Newkirk, PETA Founder and co-author of Animalkind
